Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to meters per second is 0.514444444444, which means that 1 knot is equal to 0.514444444444 meters per second:

1 kt = 0.514444444444 m/s

To convert 824 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 824 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 0.514444444444 m/s

824 kt → V_(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V_(m/s) = 824 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V_(m/s) = 423.90222222186 m/s

The final result is:

824 kt → 423.90222222186 m/s

We conclude that 824 knots is equivalent to 423.90222222186 meters per second:

824 knots = 423.90222222186 meters per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter per second is equal to 0.0023590345782067 × 824 knots.

Another way is saying that 824 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0023590345782067 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight hundred twenty-four knots is approximately four hundred twenty-three point nine zero two meters per second:

824 kt ≅ 423.902 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero two times eight hundred twenty-four knots.
